THE WORD IN REPUBLICAN CIRCLES [08/23 02:41 PM] Just chatted with a high-ranking Republican tuned in to the Bush campaign. A couple of highlights: * The idea that the Swift Boat Vets ads’ could boomerang on Bush is wishful thinking. Smart Democrats understand there’s nothing good about this for John Kerry. * The Bush campaign isn’t worried that the Swift Boat Vets’ message will step on President Bush’s message during the convention. * Despite Josh Marshall’s charges, Bob Dole wasn’t “sent out” by the Bush campaign. The campaign offered to brief him on some issues, and he turned it down. “Bob Dole doesn’t let anybody tell Bob Dole what to do,” the high-ranking Republican said, using the exact third-person style that Dole himself would use. * The Republican also wasn’t impressed with Kerry’s efforts to urge television stations not to run the Swift Boats’ ad, wondering how loud the cries of outrage would have been if the Bush campaign had tried to prevent “Fahrenheit 9/11” from running in theaters.
The PPP....is too nice a label.
I prefer the DemoSocialistMarxistClymerLyingLeftistLib Press....
Has a nice ring to it....More realistic too..!! Hehehe..
FRegards,
Because, in terms of the anti-Kerry side of the campaign, it happens to dovetail very nicely with Bush's "John Kerry Says ... John Kerry Does" ads.
Put together in one package, the SwiftVet ads say "JF'nK was a stinking liar," and the RNC ads say "and he still is."
What that does, is allow Bush to use his convention speech to define his accomplishments and goals, and stay above the fray.
I find that amazing as well. I know several people who say, "Politics just doesn't interest me" and spend their tv time watching reality shows and soap operas. (Aside: One lady in our neighborhood was angry about news coverage pre-empting her favorite soap ON SEPTEMBER 12, 2001. I couldn't believe it. I cried for weeks and here she was the next day demanding that life get back to normal.) Anyway, I think these folks just don't realize how great an effect elections and elected officials have on practically every aspect of our lives. Make one wrong choice and we all live with it for years.
Bob Dole, war hero:
"John Kerry, apologize!"
No word from horseface.

We don't disagree. Scarborough is a flake.
smile, actually I never thought so before, but am becoming to believe he is like Chris Matthews
Actually, I think Matthews is smarter and knows more
about politics. He's at least a pro, whereas Scarborough
is an amateur and comes across as one. Matthews obviously
is more liberal, but Scarborough falls into the trap of
many conservatives ... bending over backwards to appear
fair, unbiased, etc. From what I've seen of Joe, he doesn't
do a good job of advocating our side. All in all, life's
too short to watch his show.
I'm sure you are right.
In fact, I use to be uninterested myself - until I saw Al Gore trying to steal an election. Then I realized I had better start paying attention.
